Prayer to St. Gregory the Great

Father, you guide your people with kindness and govern us with love. By the prayers of Saint Gregory give the spirit of wisdom to those you have called to lead your Church. May the growth of your people in holiness be the eternal joy of your shepherds. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Prayer of St. Gregory the Great to remain in Easter joy

It is only right, with all the powers of our heart and mind, to praise You Father and Your Only-Begotten Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ. Dear Father, by Your wondrous condescension of Loving-Kindness toward us, Your servants, You gave up Your Son. Dear Jesus, You paid the debt of Adam for us to the Eternal Father by Your Blood poured forth in Loving-Kindness. You cleared away the darkness of sin by Your magnificent and radiant Resurrection. You broke the bonds of death and rose from the grave as a Conqueror. You reconciled Heaven and earth. Our life had no hope of Eternal Happiness before You redeemed us. Your Resurrection has washed away our sins, restored our innocence and brought us joy. How inestimable is the tenderness of Your Love!

We pray You, Lord, to preserve Your servants in the peaceful enjoyment of this Easter happiness. We ask this through Jesus Christ Our Lord, Who lives and reigns with God The Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.

9 Prayers of St. Gregory the Great

For those who cannot read or are very sick, they can pray 20 Our Father’s and 20 Hail Mary’s in front of the image of the saint, and will earn the same indulgences. Those who say 7 Our Father’s and 7 Hail Mary’s in front of the image of the Saint: 50,000 years of indulgences and one Holy Friday, Plenary Indulgence. Let’s give this gift to the blessed souls of Purgatory.

It may seem that the indulgences are great and it’s not necessary to pray them often, but they become a fresh breeze in the immensity of Purgatory, and of the great amount of souls which are there. Many people suffer and few pray for them. Pray with tenacity and as frequently as possible.

FIRST PRAYER
My God Jesus Christ, I adore you hanging from the Holy Cross, your Head with a Crown of Thorns. I beg you that Your Most Holy Cross delivers me from the evil angel. Amen Jesus. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

SECOND PRAYER
Oh My God Jesus Christ, I adore you in the Cross wounded and sored, drinking gall and vinegar. I beg you that the spear of Your Most Holy Side be a remedy for my soul. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

THIRD PRAYER
Oh My God Jesus Christ, for that bitterness, that for me, miserable sinner, you suffered on the Cross, mostly in that hour, when your Most Holy Soul abandoned your blessed body; I beg you, Lord, to have mercy of my soul when I abandon this mortal life; may you forgive it and guide it to Eternal Life. Amen Jesus. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

FOURTH PRAYER
Oh My God Jesus Christ, I adore you placed in the Holy Sepulcher, anointed with myrrh and fragrant ointments. I beg you, Lord, that your death be a remedy for my soul. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

FIFTH PRAYER
Oh My God Jesus Christ, I adore you and considering that time when you descended to hell and released and freed in heaven those who were captives, I beg you, Lord, to have mercy of me. Amen Jesus. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

SIXTH PRAYER
Oh My God Jesus Christ, who are seated at the right side of the Eternal Father, I adore you for your holy Resurrection from the dead and Ascension into Heaven. I beg you, Lord, that I may follow you and my soul be presented in front of the Most Holy Trinity. Amen Jesus. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

SEVENTH PRAYER
Oh My God Jesus Christ, good Shepherd, conserve and guard the just, justify and forgive the sinners, have mercy of all the faithful and remember me, sad and miserable sinner. Amen Jesus. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

EIGHTH PRAYER
Oh My God Jesus Christ, I adore you and contemplating that on Judgment Day you will come to judge the living and the dead, and to the good ones you will give the glory, and to the bad ones eternal condemnation. I beg you, Lord, by your Holy Passion, to free us from the sorrows of Hell, to forgive us, and take us to the Eternal Life. Amen Jesus. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

NINTH PRAYER
Oh Most Beloved Father, I offer you the innocent death of Your Son and the great firmness of His Heart for all the blame and sorrow that I, miserable sinner, deserve and all sinners: for those enormous and grave sins of mine and of all my brothers, live friends, and deceased. I beg you, Lord, to have mercy of us. Amen Jesus. One Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

OFFERING
I offer these prayers to the merits of the Passion and death of our Redeemer Jesus Christ, to whom I ask and beg to receive them in reduction and satisfaction of my faults and sins, confirming to me what Saint Gregory and other Pontiffs have granted to those who pray it in front of his image or have it with them; and it is my will that God our Lord applies what seems to be enough to release from Purgatory a soul that is there and which was more than my obligation to His glory and of the Most Holy Virgin Mary, to whom I ask and beg to be my advocate with her Divine Majesty. Amen Jesus.

PRAYER
Oh Most Holy Cross, Oh innocent and precious Blood, Oh great and cruel sorrow, Oh poorness of Christ my Redeemer, Oh Sores so lacerated, Oh Heart trespassed, Oh Blood of Christ spilled, Oh bitter death of God, Oh great dignity of God, worthy of being reverenced. Help me, Lord, to reach eternal life, now and in the hour of my death. Amen Jesus.

Prayer of St. Gregory the Great

Acclaim to the suffering Christ O Lord, you received affronts without number from your blasphemers, yet each day you free captive souls from the grip of the ancient enemy. You did not avert your face from the spittle of perfidy, yet You wash souls in saving waters. You accepted Your scourging without murmur, yet through your meditation You deliver us from endless chastisements. You endured ill-treatment of all kinds, yet You want to give us a share in the choirs of angels in glory everlasting. You did not refuse to be crowned with thorns, yet You save us from the wounds of sin. In your thirst You accepted the bitterness of gall, yet You prepare Yourself to fill us with eternal delights. You kept silence under the derisive homage rendered You by Your executioners, yet You petition the Father for us although You are his equal in Divinity. You came to taste death, yet You were the Life and had come to bring it to the dead. Amen.
